Marriage for the Long Run Conference
Marriage for the Long Run Conference
November 20-21, 2026
Weddings are happy occasions! But once the wedding day and the honeymoon are over, marriages can struggle through the ups and downs of life. Sometimes couples may find themselves just coasting along aimlessly or possibly becoming discouraged and hopeless. Yet marriages don’t have to end up that way. Rediscover the biblical basis of a lasting and loving marriage that truly honors and glorifies Christ for the long run!
Keynote Speaker
Dr. John D. Street is the Chair of the Master of Arts in Biblical Counseling and Professor of Biblical Counseling at The Master’s University & Seminary in California. He is also a Fellow and the President of the Board of Trustees of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC).
